"In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also--John 14:2-3. To Faye Nelson and family, May God strengthen all of you and bless you with a peace that surpasseth all understanding during your time of sorrow. You are in my prayers.
